@Briantist "Aerialman: Being off air for 12 minutes?"
For how often it *does* go off-air. While it's been broadcasting DVB-T since 2009, there's little point in it doing so if it can't be relied on not to stop broadcasting at a crucial point in the middle of a drama, for example, or during any other programme that other people consider to be important to them.

PSB1 BBCA MUX fell off air twice just now - 12:24 to 12:25, then 12:29 to 12:33. Unlike most of the previous outages, the MUX stopped being broadcast. On both occasions PSB2 carried on broadcasting perfectly fine.

Fell off air again on the BBC multiplex 15:09. ITV carrying on as normal. Been informed it's the BT fibre link to the site that's fallen over. Also taken out Ebbw Vale!

@lloyd Sounds like you didn't carry out the retune on the 19th. We all had plenty of warning about it since about a month before it took place. Retune your TV or Freeview box and they'll magically reappear.

Long Mountain's a main transmitter, not a relay.
